The subject kind of says it all, my company is connecting
two TCP/IP LAN's consisting of mostly of SUN SparcStations by
a 64K leased line.  I'm looking for a bridge/router that will
turn these two nets into one virtual net.  We only use TCP protocol.
I've got reams of propoganda from various vendors, but no first hand testimonials.

Proposed traffic over the line is about 50M/day, with 75% being
file transfer, 25% interactive.  It is possible we may increase
the bandwidth to 128K or 256K over time.

I guess I'm interested in the product that will give me the best
through-put for the money.
